Three days passed quickly.

For the past three days, Fang Li has been sleeping in his room, as if he is trying to make up for all the sleepless nights he stayed up earlier. He sleeps both day and night.

Thanks to Arcueid's power, his body has been completely restored.

However, the side effects on the soul are beyond the scope of Arcueid's power to repair, so Fang Li needs to rest in order to recover from the fatigue of his soul.

During this time, several members of the Tohno family came to visit him, and even Tohno Shiki seemed to have woken up and came to see Fang Li once.

However, the group tacitly avoided mentioning Arcueid and instead spent a considerable amount of time discussing the situation in Misaki City.

Apart from that, Fang Li remained in bed, fast asleep.

During this time, Fang Li also tried to control the power Arcueid had left him.

Unfortunately, that power did not obey Fang Li's commands at all. It simply lingered in Fang Li's body, like a wild beast king guarding a territory in the forest, proud and independent.

It's only natural that they would come here.

That's Arcueid's full power.

Arcueid seemed to have poured all its power into Fang Li's body. Even the parts that hadn't recovered before were gradually recovering within Fang Li's body, and not within Arcueid's body as its master.

Therefore, when this power is fully restored to its peak, it will be a terrifying force capable of destroying an entire continent, reaching the Second Level.

If Fang Li can use such terrifying power at will, then what will he need to fear in the future?

It should be noted that in the Main God Space, Second Level Main God Envoy are extremely rare, and first-level Main God Envoy are practically legendary.

Fang Li a Fourth Level Main God Envoy to want to obtain such power in one step is nothing short of a pipe dream.

Of course, Fang Li had no intention of using it.

"That is ultimately the power of Arcueid."

Therefore, Fang Li will eventually return it to that princess.

Moreover, even when he possessed such immense power that he would never covet it, he returned it to Arcueid in front of him.

This is what Fang Li needs to do next.

However, before that, Fang Li needs to find the Millennium Castle and also find a way to return this power.

Until then, let Arcueid sleep in.

Three days later, Fang Li finally came out of the room.

Upon entering the living room, they found the Tohno family.

"What?"

Tohno Shiki exclaimed in surprise.

"Are you leaving?"

Not only Tohno Shiki, but also Tohno Akiha, Kohaku, and even Hisui looked at Fang Li with great astonishment.

"Why?" Tohno Shiki asked hurriedly, "Why did you suddenly make this decision?"

Unlike Tohno Shiki, who looked puzzled, Tohno Akiha, Kohaku, and Hisui remained silent, as if they understood everything.

Because, as early as the first day he arrived at this mansion and was hired as the butler of the Tohno family, Fang Li had already said that.

"Sooner or later, I will still leave."

Fang Li smiled slightly and shrugged.

"Although it hasn't been long since I came to the Tohno family, now is the time."

It's not very long.

All things considered, that's less than a month.

"If it were calculated on a monthly salary basis, I wouldn't even get paid if I left now, would I?" Fang Li smiled and said to everyone, "However, it's better if it's short. At least it won't feel like a life-or-death separation. We're not that close, are we?"

Such words are undoubtedly somewhat heartless.

The length of time is not the key issue.

Fang Li should have already experienced this at the Roswaal Mansion.

After all, there, a kind-hearted Half-Elf girl and a gentle and virtuous Oni girl formed a deep bond with Fang Li in just about a month.

However, things are different from back then.

At that time, Fang Li helped and saved those two girls countless times.

Given this, and considering that the two girls were already lacking in love, it's not surprising that they were gradually drawn to Fang Li.

But things are different here.

Perhaps the relationship between Fang Li and Arcueid is somewhat complicated.

However, the relationship with the people in the Tohno family was much simpler, purely a work-related one.

"So let's part ways amicably here."

Fang Li clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention, and said this.

"Thank you for taking care of me during this time."

When Fang Li said this, Fang Li tone remained casual, but the sincerity within was obvious to everyone.

That's why Tohno Akiha finally spoke up.

"Don't you want to reconsider?" Tohno Akiha's tone was equally sincere as she said, "To be honest, I don't approve of you leaving like this. The family needs help right now, and the guys coming and going in this city lately are all so annoying. If you can help me, that would be a huge favor."

That's what they say, but Tohno Akiha probably had another idea in mind, right?

"If our Tohno family's debt to your Shichiya family ends here, it would be utterly unreasonable," Tohno Akiha said. "Therefore, I still hope you will stay."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li smiled.

"Actually, you don't owe me anything. There's no reason for a clan's debt to be repaid to just one person." Fang Li glanced at Tohno Shiki and said to Tohno Akiha, "If you really want to repay, there are other people you can repay to, and that person doesn't necessarily have to be me."

Tohno Akiha was speechless, while Tohno Shiki looked completely bewildered.

After a long pause, Tohno Akiha sighed as if giving up, "It seems you've made up your mind."

"That's right." Fang Li said bluntly, "So let's look forward to seeing you again in the future."

"...Is that so?" Tohno Akiha nodded, her gaze falling on Fang Li, and said softly, "Then take care."

"Mr. Fang Li," Kohaku also spoke up, "Please make sure you take good care of yourself."

"Have a safe journey," Hisui said, a rare occurrence for her as well.

Finally, Tohno Shiki scratched his head and sighed in resignation.

"In the end, I still don't understand who you are."

Fang Li smiled wryly at this remark.

There is only one answer.

"We are the same kind of people."

"They're just like us."

That's how it is.

Thus, Fang Li's journey in this world comes to an end.
